“I have many students at my sushi classes, and Katsuramuki has always been a challenge to teach in a short time. Now I just give a demonstration of the traditional technique, and then have my students practice with the Kappa Kanpeki. They can see where the technique comes from, and get immediate results quickly and safely!”

Kappa Kanpeki will work with most dense cylindrical vegetables: Cucumbers, Daikon Radish, Apples, Potatoes, Zucchini, and Eggplant are the most common we use it with, but feel free to test it with others! It is important that whatever you cut is firm and not too soft, otherwise it may be more difficult.
